1 MATLOCK CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 MATLOCK CLOSE sales between June 1995 and January 2026 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the May 2025 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the January 2026 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might 1 MATLOCK CLOSE be worth now?

1 MATLOCK CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £242,736.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.1%, between January 2026 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Wigan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 MATLOCK CLOSE of £240,000 on 30th January 2026. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £242,736 over the nine months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 MATLOCK CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The January 2026 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 MATLOCK CLOSE has not materially changed since January 2026.
